The bioluminescence experience is amazing. We do not kayak (or exercise much for that matter) and we had no problem at all (we are 60 and 75). Our guide, Leo, was an absolute jewel. He even taught us how to use our camera phone to capture the experience. Please book on a moonless night. It will make all the difference. The team was absolutely on top of things: there was a weather change and they notified us with plenty of time to join an earlier group. Overall: Highly recommend! The one thing is that to get to the experience, it feels almost like Planes, Trains and automobiles. If you are coming from San Juan, it may be worth it to fly (we took the ferry and it was a fine experience, but the logistics were insane: renting a car, driving, parking the car, getting the ferry, renting another car and then driving to the meet up).

Bio Bay Tour Vieques – Full Clear Canoes Experience

Miriam_L, Sep 2026

Book it.

This was such a beautiful experience! The clear kayaks is a must because you can see the lights under you! Our guide was Javier and he was amazing! He was very knowledgeable and made us feel safe and comfortable considering we were rowing in the dark. Booking this excursion is a must!

Vieques island Biobay Kayaking Tour

Great experience! If you...

Great experience! If you travel with an odd group, the extra person will pair up with someone else (everyone on the tour was nice). The clear kayak bottoms are beautiful to see the bioluminescence when you're kayaking through the water (disturbing the water is what makes it so that you can see them). You don't need to pack bug spray (or just get reef safe options) as the bay wasn't super bug-y. Wearing darker clothes with a swimsuit under would also be preferred as the dinoflagellates appear best when it's completely dark.

Bioluminescent Bay Kayak Trip from Vieques

Pushkar_R, Sep 2026

Great tour

Arnaldo was amazing. He explained everything in great detail and had great knowledge not only about marine biology, but also about astronomy. Together the mixture of two made it a very knowledgeable hour and a half. He also gave tips on how to click photographs in the dark, making it special. P. S. You have to wade through mud, so if you’re uncomfortable with that, this tour may not be the best for you.

Vieques: Snorkeling Tour with Sea Turtles and Stingrays

Niharika_C, Aug 2026

Amazing Snorkel Experience

Our tour guide, Ian, was incredibly knowledgeable and an excellent swimmer. I was the only person booked for that time slot, but the tour still went ahead, which I really appreciated. Since it was my first time snorkeling with a mouthpiece, Ian was extremely patient and made sure I felt comfortable and safe in the water. It turned out to be such an amazing experience, I got to see so many beautiful fish and even swim with sea turtles! I would definitely recommend this tour, especially for first-time snorkelers.

Amazing experience !

Amazing experience. The tour guides were extremely welcoming and took us to some great spots for turtle and fish snorkeling. They were very helpful with the gear and made sure that all of us were comfortable. They were also very knowledgeable about the island and any questions we had. They also gave us some great recommendations for the rest of our visit.
